Hi all,
I didn't know that I am carrying a defective camera for 4 years unless i went worse. Now I got it replaced. Shouldn't Apple notify all the owners about the defective phone they are owning? Is there any way we get compensated for this?
I'm talking about this - iSight Camera Replacement Program for iPhone 6 Plus - Apple Support

iPhone 6 Plus, iOS 12.1
This problem involved a small percentage of devices manufactured long ago in a limited date range. Apple did provide adequate notification via their web site, iSight Camera Replacement Program for iPhone 6 Plus - Apple Support
There are several significant differences from the motor industry. First, a blurred camera doesn’t harm anyone but a vehicle defect can be lethal. Second, motor vehicles must have fees paid and be registered with government authorities so they know who owns every one of them, unlike cellular devices. If you want to propose paying a fee for mandatory state registration of your devices there will be millions of other users opposing you.
Thanks. My point was - Shouldn't there be notifications to affected serial number owners? Instead of expecting buyers to buy a product and keep looking in seller's website for any potential problems.
That repair program has been posted since at least early 2016. If you can't be bothered to do an occasional web search for these things then why should Apple?
Why would I do a web search for the problem that I don't realize is a problem unless it goes worse. Shouldn't there be notifications to affected serial number owners?
The easiest way to contact people who were affected was to have their pictures be blurry then they could check with Apple support.
Haha, that was a good one. I hope automobile parts recall people don’t start thinking like that :)
Don't compare problems with things that inconvenience you to things that can kill you. That's simply asinine.
Thanks for your replies.
